Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

You didn't happen to buy that on the RS forums did you, Jack? That's a beautiful helmet. If I can find one for a good price, I'd definitely pick on up. More Vader helmets, guys. My ROTS one should be here by this weekend.

Yes sir...I did ;)
 
Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

Cool, congrats on you finally getting it. It seemed like an adventure just to get it.


Thanks bro...I have actually been spending quite a bit of time there lately...I am kind of over collecting anything but SW at this point. Too many things coming out that aren't SW and I am in the process of buying a house. So I gotta be a little tighter with what I collect. I few choice pieces, mostly 1:1 scale and prop replicas. Displayed very museum like is where it is at for me now. I have sold ALL of my Hot Toys figs and haven't looked back. It is a very liberating feeling to be able to say "no" to things :) But I am looking forward to the upcoming HT Bespin Luke and the SSC Boba and Grievous. But I am mostly a 1:1 guy from here on out.

Congrats on the McVader. Looks great. If only eFX would hurry up and release more great helmets like that.

This will be a companion piece to my upcoming EFX Vader Legend helmet.
EFX did a great job on this one. The paint work is very good and very deep.

JB

Impressive. Most Impressive :)
 
Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

I hear ya, jack. 1:1's:rock Got anymore buckets?

Yep, I have:

SPFX ANH Vader(now just a place holder until the Efx Legend Vader comes)
TE2 ESB trooper helmet...painted to look like a screen used HDPE bucket, chipped paint an all.
Efx Luke ANH Pilot helmet.

I am working on obtaining a Gino V2 trooper, and a MR Boba currently.

Waiting to preorder the Efx Legend Stormy, and the Legend Scout...and the Mcquarrie Stormy.

I got some saber replicas too. :)

Instead of the Gino Stormtrooper helmet go for the RS Props aka SiMan version. Cheaper and even more accurate ;) Check out RPF.
 
Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

Here is mine, efx clone, MR clone, cylon that i made from a kit, stunt stormtrooper i built from a kit & a royal guard. The guard is from a mold i made from a don post i have.

No doubt Serg, the SiMan is an awesome helmet and definitely more accurate than the Gino...but for the deal I worked out on the Gino there is no way I could get an SiMan for that. So in the end, for me right now, economics won out ;) BTW I love all your imperial buckets dude :)

Thanks. Indeed the SiMan is awesome but if you got a good deal on Gino don't pass. It is a very accurate lid. BTW did you get the bumpy cap or smooth one?
 
Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

Couldn't pass up on a deal for a ROTS version while I wait for the eFX ANH one:D I'll be bringing this one to display in my office when that one does come out but for now, I'm more than happy with how they look together.

I do believe it is in fact the bumpy :)

VERY nice dude...have never pulled the trigger on the ROTS vader. I always admire it...there is just something sleek about it that I love...maybe its the all black. If you don't mind me asking dude...how much did it set you back?

Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

Exactly how I'm doing mine Verbal.
Just waiting on the eFX ANH Vader and some custom plaques :)
 
Re: Anybody collect 1:1 Helmets?

Great looking setup with the litho's, Mandible. I plan on having the PF's displayed underneath my buckets, do I hope Sideshow announces the Vader 2 soon.
